House Republicans are holding elections to choose their round of leaders for the 119th Congress.
House Republicans have chosen a fellow member to replace GOP Conference Chair Elise Stefanik, R-N.Y., in their party's leadership ranks. Rep. Lisa McClain, R-Mich., was elected House GOP Conference Chair on Wednesday evening, the No. 4 leadership position for Republicans in the chamber. She was the favorite to win the internal race against Rep. Kat Cammack, R-Fla.
Meanwhile, McClain had support from a wide range of the Republican Conference, from House Freedom Caucus members to rank-and-file national security hawks. Stefanik was originally intending to run for the job again before accepting President-elect Donald Trump's nomination to serve as his ambassador to the United Nations. The conference chair is in charge of overseeing and executing messaging strategy within the House GOP.
